A butcher in London...

So there's a butcher who lives in one of the more run down neighbourhoods of London. As such, he constantly has to deal with petty thieves trying to steal meat out of his shop. He's not an educated man, but he becomes quite crafty in protecting his livelihood. One day, the Duke of Wellington passes by the shoppe on his way to a meeting, and sees the man at work, fighting off thieves. The Duke of Wellington is impressed, and spur of the moment, offers the butcher a generalship. His staff, very confused, asks Wellington why he's done this, to which he replies, "have you ever seen anyone so ferociously defend their flanks?!"
